report of the committee on streets
-was quite Jsngthy, showing in detail
alt the work done on the streets for \
the past XV'o years. Then came the
report of the , finance committee, j
which showed that the financial con-,

about the same conditiou it was when
the outgoing administration took
charge of the city affairs.
The police committee, the fire com- j
mittee, the city property committee
made full and comprehensive reports.
The health and charity committee's
showed that a little over $5,000 had
been paid out in that department
during the past two years. The re
port of thn committee on water and
lights shewed that department in
good sh?do. There are now nearly
eleven mll<58 of agnitqry,. sewerage in

Alderman R. F. Bryant was elected
mayor pro tern. After adopting a
resolution that the meetings of coun
cil be continued to be held as at
present on the fourth Friday of each
month. It was ordered that adver
tisements - be Inserted in the news
? papers ;of-the city giving notice that
election; will be held at the next
meeting to fill the following city
offices and calling for applications
for the same: City Clerk and Treas
urer, Assistant City Clerk and Treas
urer, Chief of Police, seven Police
men, Street Overseer, and City At
torney. Applications for any of these
positions must be filed by noon of
the day preceeding the next regular
meeting of council.
The natter of ? city engineer was
taken rp and discussed, and was fi
nally deferred to the next regular
mating. There' seems to be some
differences among the aldermen as
to the advisability of continuing this
office. Dr. L. C. Shecut gave notice
that hi;; term as a "member of the
board of health expired on October
1st and that he would have to decline
to serre any longer on the board.
Mayor Sain appointed Mr. George W.
Fairey to succeed Dr. Shecut on the
board of health.
This about ended the business be
fore council, and just before adjourn
ing Mayor Sain made the following
patriotic statement: "I Wi.nt the peo
ple to L-:now that I am Mayor for the
entire city, and I have no hard feel
ings towards those who voted against
me. I will stand for equal rights for
both rioh and poor alike, and I want
the people to help me In the dis
charge of my duties. I want their
support, and with this I feel sure
that yns can push Orangeburg rapidly
along the road of progress. All
complaints I want made to the heads
of the several committees, and if they
are not attended to there, then I want
them placed before the council."
At the conclusion of Mayor Sain's
patriotic little speech, Alderman W.
G. Smith responded to the sediments
.?xpresued, pleading his support to the
Mayor saying he would do all he
FIELDS WHITE WITHC OTTOX.
Opening Faster Than in Years and
Pickers Very Scarc-a,
Bowman, September 24?Special:
There has been a rush in the cotton
fields during the past two weeks and
the fleecy staple is being gathered
as fast, as possible. All of ;he avail
able hands for this tedious work are
apparently "doing their Vest," and
yet very little Impression is. being
made on the many fields i-i this ter
ritory, so full of open bollu as far as
tile eye can see in almost every direc
tion.
... There is no questioning the fact of
there being more open ootson every
? where now than was ever known in
this county before. The bugabear
cry of crop deterioration a *nonth ago
is past and gone and farmers are now
realizing the fact that the;.' will have
!their hands"-'f?ll, before t?je present
'crop is harvested.
There seems to be a determination
on. the part of many to rash their
cotton tv. market, and mi'ch of it is
now being sold, regardless of the
drop in . price. The gins bm running
{ull.time,and..are,al.so running part
! ly at night,' many of the customers
j waiting for hours for their turn at
. the gin.
i With favorable weather for pick
ling those public gius will have about
all they can do for some time to come
,as hundreds of bales are .n the Leids
j waiting for the pickers. At 50 cents
per .100 pounds good wages can be
I made a.t this work," many half-grown
, children picking a hundred or more
per day.
Why the many lounginj? negroes in
the cities do not flook to the country
and make money at this kind of work
is indeed a-mystery, except it be pure
laziness. The cry goet up every
where for more cotton pickers.
USE ONLY LICESEB FILMS.
A7# Pictures at The Tht?ato Passed
Upon by National Board.
An article appeared in The Times
and Democrat, Saturday Sept. 23,
stating that parents should be very
careful what pictures thsy let their
j children see. Since I have owned
[the'Theato there is not a person that
; can truthfully say that at any time
they saw a picture in my place -that
would: offend-the most refined taste.
I use onyl licensed fil as and same

of Censorship. Censured, which ail
pictures could be (which means pass
ed .upon) does not sign-fy that they
I are censored by the National Board
I of Censorship. All pictures used at
I the-.Theato are. censored by the Na
| tional Board, then licensed. The
[General Film.Supply C&apany of At

and not Independent, buys and han
dles only such films, then I rent
them.
This shows how strict, the National

on the ground that it would attract

of the city, and thus furthering the
best interests of the city. Aldermen
Smith was followed by the other al
dermen in pledging their support to
Mayor Sain in co-operating with him
in making his administration a suc

Mayor Sain supplemented his little
speech above quoted with the state
ment that when the new policemen
were elected he would say something
to them which would probably keep
them from sleeping- while on duty.
Mayor Sain's administration com

will ^-ove a success. It is the duty
of all the people to help him make

Trouble Over Text Books.
The St. Matthews correspondent of
The News and Courier says: "The
radical changes in the text books of
the schools, which were recently
adopted by the* State board, are now
coming home to the people in a very
emphatic and tangible way. There
is vigorous and widespread complaint
and criticism over the matter. here,
particularly among the poorer class
es. It this community is an index to
other portions of the State it might
be well for the superior officers to
decide carefully and then exercise
due conservatism about such frequent
and marked changes.
News From Midway.
Midway, Sept. 21?Special: Mrs.
G. W. SmrTO Is visiting relatives at
Holly Hill.
Rev. M. D. Austin preached his
farewell sermon at Hickory Grove
Sunday afternoon, and left Tuesday
for Louisville, Ky., where he will
again take up his studies.
tMr. J. K. Stoudenmire of the Four
Holes section, who is completeing a
job of carpenter work here, was call
ed away last Tuesday-on account of
the serious illness of his grand
daughter, little Parrlce.
Sweatman of Holly Hill, who lies
at the point of death as the result
of a case of diptheria. *
Dr. A. W. Browning, the noted phy
sician of Elloree, took one of his
patients, Master Milleage Felkel, who
has a case of appendicitis, to the
Knowlton Infirmary at Columbia last
Monday in hia auto. Hope he under
went the operation alright and will
soon be at home again.
Masters Wallallieu and Alton
Zeigler of Elloree spent Saturday
night and Sunday with their cous
ins, Mr. Sheilie Smith and brothers.
The farmers here are quite busy
gathering their crops. A good rain
is very much needed owing to the
warm, dry weather we have been-hav
ing.
When Frost May Come.
The Columbia Record says "ac
cording to the weather maps in the
office of the federal department of
agriculture, the earliest, killing
frosts ever recorded by the govern
ment observers in South Carolina
were on October 10th for the upper
section, October 20 for the central
and November 1 tor the lower. The
average first frost date, according
to the map, in South Carolina, is No
vember 1 to 5, for the upper sections.
Farmers who are familiar with the
time consumed by the cotton be li
from the bloom to maturity can fig
ure out their top crop yields by some
such data."
Most Enjoyable Occasion.
Dr. and Mrs. J. E. Rickenbaker, of
Cameron, entertained delightfully on
Thursday evening, In honor of Mrs.
Rickenbaker's sisters, Misses Nina
and Lila Powell, of Columbia. Those
who enjoyed their hospitality were:
Misses Nina and Lila Powell, Vera
Houseal of Columbia, Nina, Anne
and Bessie Rast, Effie and Grace Zim
merman, Annie Woodward. Dorothy
Zimmerman, Daisy Murphy and Anna
Metts, and Cleveland and George Ul
mer. Harvey Taylor, Tom Moss, Fel
der Evans, Will Stoudemire, George
and Elvin Bull.
Hauling Cotton Pickers.
Cotton is opening very rapidly, and
if pickers can be had it will soon be
all gathered, as there is no top crop
to speak of. Pickers seem to be
scarcer this year than ever. Farm
ers for miles around send wagons in
to the city for the negroes and house
them during the week, when they
can be induced to remain over night.
Otherwise they are returned every
night and transported to the fields in
the mornings. This interferes with
the servant question very much too.
NEW CHURCH SITE CHOSEN.
St. Matthews Methodists to Erect a
Handsome Edifice.
The St. Matthews correspondent of
The News and Courier says St. Paul's
Methodist Church held one of thet
largest congregations seen there for
many years Sunday morning. The
main reason for this was the settle
ment of a question most viral to the
future welfare of the' church and
over which there has been keen and
intense interest.
It will be recalled that Mr. J. K.
Wannamaker, who died somewhat
more than a year ago, bequeathed
$20,000 for the erection of a Meth
odist Church at St. Matthews. He
assumed no responsibility for its
more specific location. It has been
long recognized by a large element of
the membership that the present site
is inconvenient andvunfortunate. But
around the little church of twenty
nine years were clustered the tender
memories of the sainted dead whose
bones repose in the adjacent grave
yard.
Before the final vote was taken a
resolution offered by Mr. J. S. Wan
namaker, was endorsed, which pro
vided for a charter, with the owners
of lots as perpetual trustees, and that
the church lot should be ceded to the
said trustees and a suitable fence en
closing the same.
The committee appointed to get op
tions on available sites in a more
convenient place reported a number
of options. Among these were two
of the most beautiful and valuable
lots in the very heart of the residence
section. One of these is on East Bain
street and the other on. Dantzler
street, including the baseball park.
These two lots were generously of
fered by the owners free of cost.
With these facts in the possession
of the audience the ballot resulted
nearly two to one in favor of removal
and then made unanimous on motion
of Mr. A. K. Staioak. A final discus
sion on a location was postponed to
a later day. There was little display
of bltterm-BS In the proceedings and
i there will be no friction over the
I matter in the future.,
THE BANK OP CAMERON.
Annnal Meeting of Stockholders Held
and Officers Elected.
The annual meeting of the stock*
holders of the Bank of Cameron was
recently held at - Cameron. The re
port of the President, Mr. Fred I.
Culler, showed that the Institution
had enjoyed a prosperous year last
year. A dividend of eight per cent,
upon the capital, stock was declared
and paid, and a .handsome sum was
passed to the surplus account.
Mr. Jas. P. Dantzler, who has serv
ed the Bank so faithfully and effi
ciently since its organization, was re
elected. The old officers and direc
tors were reelected as-follows: Pres
ident, Fred I. Culler; Vice-president,
C. D. Bull; Cashier, Jas. P. Dantz
ler; Solicitors, Wolfe & Berry; Direc
tors, the above officers, J. F. Ricken
baker, T. S. Haigier, J. M. Stalllngs,
W. D. Houck. and J. J. Gee.
It was decided to increase the cap
ital stock by issuing ten thousand
dollars more stock, and steps will be
taken at once to. accomplish this.
. Would Not Have Them.
The Theato has turned down the
Blnford films. When the manufac
turer closed a contract with Beaulah
"the other woman" In the Beattle
case, to pose for him, he sent out
circulars telling managers that a pic
torial exhibition of the leading female
character in the famous Richmond
trial would draw large crowds
through the films In which she starr
ed. His proposition was turned
down cold by Mr. H L. Gambatti,
Manager of The Theato. " We would
not offer such a picture to our pa
trons. Regardless of any profits
that might come from it we would
not put on such a film," he went on
to say.
The Best in the State.
There is no denying the fact that
so far Orangeburg has been one of
the best cotton and cotton seed mar
kets in the State. It is claimed by
some that a fight among local buyers
of cotton seed has pushed up the
prices here. Be that as it may, the
buyers here pay $21 per ton for cot
ton seed, while the highest quotation
we have seen anywrere else was $18.
Only $17 per ton is paid in many
places for cotton seed. The moral of
this story is that people should bring
their cotton and cotton seed to Or
angeburg if they want to get the very
best prices for them.
Elect New Police? Chief.
At a nfeeting of the St. Matthews
town council held on Friday night
Mr. Dowie of Columbia was elected
chief of police fcr the next two years.
Mr. Ben F. Antley has held the job
for several years and his friends felt
sure of his re-election at the hands
of the present council, but they were
doomed to disappointment as the
election of Mr. D.owle shows.
A Very Sad Death.
Lever McKinley Fanning, son of
C. P. Fanning, and a grandson of
Capt. O. J. Fanning, died at his par
ent's home near Norway on Satur
day night, September 1G. He
was about ten years old. The fun
eial services were conducted .by the
pastor, Rev. Goodwin, at Lebanon
Methodist Church on Sunday. The
sympathy of the community goes out
:o the bereaved ones.
Difficulty at Branchville.
While acting as a peacemaker in
a difficulty between two negroes at
Hranehville on Sunday afternoon,
Fletcher Varn, a white man, was
probably fatally stabbed by one of
the beligerants named Will Shuler.
Varn shot the negro as he ran off.
but the latter made his escape. Soon
er or later Shuler will be caught and
punished.
